The Langley Arms in South Gloucestershire

Good large comfortable room Continental Breakfast

Off the beat and path between Bath and Bristol. Everything was nice and clean and very roomy. Nice breakfast!! Definitely recommend this spot

The old building, the attached local pub, the cleanliness of the rooms, and the view of nature from the rooms are all great. I think it would be a good idea to specify the second floor.

We stayed here for one night And one night was to long The place is nice from the outside Inside needs a dam good clean Stains on walls shower was diabolical filthy No hot water furniture well outdated Sockets on wall loose etc etc 1 out of 10 very poor

Very disappointed on arrival told no cooked food although menu left in room fortunately places to eat farely close by apparently the pub next door isn't doing any meals anymore.

Old building is beautiful from the outside But that's the only positive thing to say Room was vile water stained walls curtains hanging off the rails No chair very basic cheap nasty furniture Breakfast chaotic woman cooking it and serving was manic food and tasteless cheap watery bacon just horrible We were booked for two night we left early after one night

We stayed at the guest house for a night. Were initially in awe of the beautiful old building and character. The bar staff were lovely. Sadly, the state of thr room was below standard, particularly for the cost og £93. The staff preparing breakfast talked so loudly in the corridor from 6am not giving a thought for sleeping guests. The bathroom was awful. The room needed a deep clean.

Have stayed on numerous occasions over the last 10 years and had great visits. After a break of a few years we booked in. Staff very nice and friendly. Lovely location, close to shops bus routes. Unfortunately the premises and room are looking very tired. Sink in the bathroom was leaking all over the floor. Furniture tired, chipped and worn. Although the website said bed and breakfast included it was only continental breakfast. We were told it was an extra £7 odd for full English... very misleading as it used to be included. Shame......

We stayed at this lovely old B and B. Breakfast included. Sarah was very helpful and nothing was too much trouble.

The bedroom and bathroom were tired and a little dirty. Bed was comfortable and the shower worked OK. Staff were very friendly. We had the breakfast which was decent. Glad we were only staying one night though. Needs a bit of updating.

Great place, we come to Bristol a few times a year and always stay here, the staff are very friendly and the beer is always nice, the rooms are always nice and clean

We stayed for one night after a funeral and booked into an executive room. It was right at the top up 2 flights of stairs. The size of the room was a pleasant surprise. The room itself was clean and functional although the mattress was was too firm for us. Unfortunately there were no toiletries available which was disappointing for the price we paid. Staff were really friendly and helpful. We would stay again but maybe in a different room.

The place isn't clean, the food is average and well over priced. They're clearly after your money. It happened that we couldn't stay for the whole duration of the booking as we suffered flight cancellations, they refused to do anything and debited the full amount from our account anyway. If it was a nice place I wouldn't complain but on top of that its filthy.

Do NOT waste your time coming here. I recently visited on Sunday for the Carvery. After serving up my food I was greeted with a long white hair that was embedded in the Cauliflower cheese, after complaining I was given another plate and dished up a new meal and was then greeted by another hair. After I explained that the hair was inside the cauli cheese no one thought to take this off the carvery and dispose of it. It was brushed off and I was made to feel stupid for complaining. Honestly don’t waste your time coming here, the food is grim and the service is shocking.

We booked into this pub/b&b as we were attending a funeral nearby. Will behind the bar booked us in and showed us to our room, the b&b building is at the back of the pub. The accommodation is very old but quite charming. I popped to the bar to order some food but was told that as it was so hot (2 hottest days in history) the kitchen was closed so made do with a sandwich from a nearby supermarket. The drinks in the bar were well priced and Will behind the bar was very attentive and chatty as was the co-owner who allowed us to stay in the room later and agreed some family members could use our room to get ready as well. The £5 extra for full English breakfast was great value. On arriving home I noticed that I had left some items of clothing behind, I contacted the pub and spoke to Sarah who agreed to return the items by mail and when I offered to pay Sarah’s response was “it’s ok the boss has paid”. I would return if in the area again.

The staff are pleasant but really that’s the only positive comment we could make. The B and B could be beautiful but it’s not- one is greeted by overgrown grass and weeds at the front, ancient ( I don’t mean quality) furniture,the bed had a wooden leg to hold the middle of the mattress up guaranteeing a poor night’s sleep, bathroom, windows, all filthy, bed like a board. The bathroom was covered in limescale and black mould and I didn’t want to inspect the grot at the bottom of the shower screens too closely. The meal in the pub was disgusting heated up remains- my husband sent it back. Stairs next to our table covered in thick dust apart from the footprints of someone who’d gone up them. Breakfast was very limited- described as “ continental “ however it consisted of toast, heavy unpleasant croissants, butter, yoghurt and orange juice so in no way continental. The glasses were stuck to the surface which didn’t bode well either. My husband opted to pay £5 for a cooked breakfast- it was cooked freshly by a very pleasant lady but again very limited with cheap products. One of the most awful places I’ve stayed.

I've lived in Downend for 4 years and for whatever reason, I've never given the Langley a go for a pint. Went there last night with my girlfriend, and I thought it was excellent. We are currently having our kitchen renovated so to be able to eat home cooked food was such a massive comfort. Steak and kidney pie was freshly made on the day, and it was delicious. To see faggots on the menu was a must try for me as you never see it anymore! and it didn't disappoint one bit. Hefty portions so bring your appetite. After suffering for years with drinking in the huntsman, this was the most welcome pub I've drank in in Downend. Proper pub, proper food, really friendly staff. Couldn't ask for anymore.

why can the food be good but the lager and beers are hit or miss, the staff are friendly thou and the building is a please to sit in

The Langley Arms B&B is conveniently located close to Bristol. The accommodation is in the historic building detached from the main more modern building. The room was okay although would benefit from modernising. Breakfast was good and cooked freshly.

Great 1 night stay! Food in the pub was really nice and was nice and quiet and easy to find! Perfect place to stop on the way to bath!

Paid for our carvery and then we were queuing up for a drink when the lady behind the bar started screaming and shouting at a customer who was within my group that she could smell drugs. The other staff were embarrassed by her, I asked to speak to the manager and he wasn’t in. I wouldnt let my staff shout at anyone like that even if their was an issue. I asked for a refund and left, shame as I’ve been waiting months to try here and rarely get sundays off work

We visited today after a gap of almost 19 months; during which time it had only opened-up well after most lockdowns had ended. On one occasion the pub opened two weeks before a further lockdown was enforced. After the May lockdown, the pub opened its doors, welcoming patrons for drinking and dining. The Langley is our ‘local’, but had become less attractive, because it was in dire need of refurbishments. Our own busy schedule of several staycations in the four months ending September, provided few opportunities to visit the Langley, until today. We were very pleasantly surprised by impressive décor improvements inside the pub. The lower ground floor area at the extreme left-hand side of the pub has been transformed by the creation of a new small room: from what was possibly a stock-room. The adjacent back lounge has also been made into a smart and comfortable lounge. I understand that the upstairs area has also been renovated with new carpeting, and has been redecorated; but was closed when we visited. The main bar has been refurbished with the wooden floor before the bar being skimmed and revarnished. Our party had a meeting in the newly formed room; a reasonable compromise for us as compared to the upstairs room in which we have regularly met for many years. The new downstairs room, however, would not be ideal when we have guest speakers; as this room is open to the rest of the pub, and would not be as private as we would need. Our meal was very good indeed; being chicken breast in a light sauce with vegetables and boiled potatoes. This was followed by a dessert of three scoops of mixed ice cream. The Langley is our local ‘walk-to’ pub, but does not offer budget-priced white or rosé wine other than very basic Chilean fare. I agree that, at under £4 for a 175ml glass, it was the cheapest we have seen, but we would pay £5-£8 by the 175ml glass, for more complex and zesty French or South African wines. The young lady who served us was excellent, she was helpful, pleasant and spoke-up, so we could hear her clearly above the hub-bub of background chatter. We are keen to start using this pub more, but give us a better wine to enjoy please.

Clean but needs perhaps some small attention to detail Liked · Great location for what we wanted, The room was very specious and clean Disliked · say there are some points that should be addressed in the description of the King room that we stopped...

Fantastic place to stay , with friendly staff and brilliant fo od. Would highly recommend .I stayed here for a week and enjoyed every minute of it

Went with the family last week. Very busy there and it was clear that they had taken too many bookings which was confirmed by staff. Once the initial chaos subsided the queues went down quite quickly and the food was lovely. The staff member carving...

The best carvery you will ever eat,Ross the carver is a wonderful man...Good home cooked food with roasters cooked in the oven,wonderful parsips mashed swede and cauliflower cheese plus many other vegetables...

This pub and restaurant is on my doorstep and I have to admit that before the pandemic I didn't go as often as I could or should. It shows the local owners have made good use of the lockdowns and its back familiar although welcomingly...

We visited the pub and had a nice fish and chips dinner. It was our first time eating here and the portions were big. The bar staff are friendly so we would visit again.

I have used this place for 2 years now and it has never let me down. Charming friendly staff throughout, good value for money. I will be back :)

Always good well cooked food,carvery just like a home made Sunday Roast,staff helpful and pleasant. My sons says “best liver and bacon I’ve had in a long time”

Always a good carvery served up here. A couple of members of staff who need to smile more and look like their at least enjoying being at work. Despite that we come here regularly as it's easy, quick and a good price, always hot and...

This pub is where our Rotary Club regularly meet for our weekly meetings, socialising is important to us! I have not reviewed the pub on any of the previous “Rotary Club” occasions but feel moved to in this instance. There were about 35 people attending...

I absolutely love this place, good service, large choice on the menu and plenty of wine and beer. I'm going back next month

Noticed that the Langley claims it's vegatarian friendly, the menu we saw had 0 veggie options.... Anyway, carpet in room was stained, on dark brown carpet aswel, so the fact it's quite noticeable says something.getting a carpet cleaner or changing the carpet isn't that expensive...

Stayed overnight and just had the continental breakfast. The bedroom was tired, broken lampshade on one light and no shade on the other. TV remote fell to pieces but still worked. Door knob gel off the wardrobe. Loo seat loose. Towels were threadbare. Felt sorry...

Stayed here for one night, as son was moving locally, nice staff, friendly but the bnb really needs upgrading I know not easy with a listed building but very hot rooms, very noisy floorboards if anyone moves you can hear it. The lovely breakfast lady...

We stayed in the mobile home disgusting boiler dangerous .gas safety check 2008 Staff lovely ,pub food ok ,pub needs updating

This place is really convenient for the airport -approx 10 mins away. The food was fine although they seemed to be short of staff. Room was adequate with everything you need.

I don't very often leave negative reviews but I couldn't help it this time.

Our weekend was filled with Rotary duties, supporting one of our Club’s longest running events - a Plant Stall at the Mangotsfield Festival. So a full day’s work on the Saturday left us feeling that we needed to work far-less on the Sunday, and that excluded us from cooking our own Sunday lunch.

Struggled to understand the attitude of the staff tonight who where confrontational and unfriendly. Just dropped off elderly father and brothers who were visiting for the weekend and staying at Langley Arms seeking a late drink at 11.00. Told bar was closed even to guests. Asked why it was ok for staff who were drinking and told that if I did not like it, to leave. Was informed that it is not a hotel. Very upsetting end to a delightful evening at the Golden Heart, Winterbourne. Check it out Lessons to be learnt about customer service me thinks

The location and the decor of this establishment may put you off, but don't let it. The B&B; accommodation is excellent, the rooms quirky and quaint and the atmosphere very good indeed. The lounger-bar although basic in its format serves superb food and the staff and service was excellent. I shall certainly be using this inn for more visits to the Bristol area; excellent value for money and the facilities for quests were just spot on. Recommended.

Come in for a nice afternoon drink in the sun, and were left standing like an idiot while the barwoman checked in a b and b guest. No acknowledgement for a good 5 minutes. A nod or a hello or something would have been appreciated.

Not often I write a negative review but having had liunch at this place on 29th March 2019, I felt complled to.

Unexpected old building at the edge of a fairly new housing estate. Good access to nearby green areas, and not far from the ring road A4174. Check in was done at the end of the bar, and the rooms had to be paid for in advance. Room was good, and quiet, but I was dissapointed by lack of shower products (shampoo etc). I was very disappointed by the breakfast included, there wasn't even real coffee (only instant was available). Nice, but expensive, especially for the service provided.

Old fashioned looking in a seperate building linked to a Pub.

Stayed for a few nights quite enjoyed it the food was really good! Rooms weren’t to bad either great space for parking and friendly locals and staff had a few good chats with Sarah blond woman who worked there also had a good chat with a barmaid they called George she was really nice and was good company would stay here again :)

I ate here twice and it was really good both times. Plenty of choice, friendly staff, nice food, great if you like real ale and enough wine to choose from too. Its a proper pub :)

we decided to give this almost secret hideaway try. I had heard from several people the carvery here was worth a try. Wednesday Thursday Friday and Sunday are the carvery days. WE were not disappointed the food was great hot and well cooked lots of choice. We popped in on a Friday at 12.30, there were a few people in but it wasn't packed by any means. Judging by the amount of possible seats this place can get very busy. I understand Sunday is the busiest day,

Ours was a strange visit. We had pre-booked and were shown where our table was rather than be shown to it. Not before we had paid though! It was only then we realised the food (it was a carvery) was served upstairs. Whilst we were sat upstairs. Being a busy Sunday lunch the stairs, which were only narrow, were very busy. And being disabled, it was not safe for me to negotiate stairs and other customers whilst carring a hot plate of food. In fact it would not be a good experience for anyone carrying a plate of hot food down a busy staircase. Non of this was explained when we booked by telephone. Anyway, we changed tables for one upstairs. It was very dark. There were no windows, just skylights I seem to remember. The food was very nearly very good indeed. What let it down was the sage and onion stuffing. It was served as a powder? It was as if it had just been poured out of the packet. It had never seen water of any kind! I have never witnessed anything like it. How do you eat powdered stuffing? Thinking it was something other than stuffing I asked a member of staff what it was. She replied "stuffing" in a voice which suggested she thought I was some kind of heathen. Plenty of young waitresses hanging about. Non of which seemed to do anything. Wont be going back despite the quality of most of the food.

We used the Langley for a celebrations and there is nothing wrong with the catering or staff they were absolutely brilliant as was the food supplied but my family had prebooked a room to stay over and this is the accommodation they were offered for £110 room only. I will not make a comment except to suggest ask first if it is the trailer out back. It really is disgusting

The scampi were sad-looking and not homemade. My fiancé had the saddest burger ever. Pub food is pub food but still... some quality needs to justify the price. The staff was kind though.

Stayed 1 night on way back from Cornwall. Lovely old building and very nice room with lots of character. Pub food was very nice and reasonably priced. Breakfast was continental and was very very average. Only thing that slightly lets this place down was there was no real welcome when we arrived or at breakfast. Just felt like a number.

I have been here a few times now for food on a Saturday lunch time with my Husband and Mother-in-Law and I'm working my way through the menu, the food is really nice, basic pub grub at really good prices and great portions too, always had good fast service, I will be going back there soon to sample more of the menu and they also do home cooked specials that are deliciously tempting! I love the old building and all the different decor it looks great!

Stayed two nights here during a weekend away and really enjoyed our stay.

We booked a room at the Langley Arms online via booking.com and were told that it would cost £85 for a room for my husband and me and our three yr old son. I rang to check that this included breakfast and the bed for our child and was told that it would. The lady i spoke to was very nice and told me it would be "mean" to charge extra for a camp bed.

Ideally situated for visiting Bristol and Bath. Old building very sympathetically renovated, providing rooms with great character. Attached pub next door looked inviting, but menu limited. Real ales not to my taste. Coffee choice, black or white! Overall did not live up to initial expections.

when for a roast lunch. it was beautiful staff were amazing. after lunch sat in the beer garden with a ice cold pint of cider

Been going here for years. The landlord nice as pie to you too start then once your a regular almost too much trouble too speak. Went Sunday 3rd of June with our four year old who have always been given a small about of veg we ate our meal,when leaving was approached by a 18 year old girl who has just started working there telling my wife off for using our own plate to put his veg on in front of many people who was waiting to get served.then outside in the car park was told to f..k off and not come again by the guy cutting the meat no management available they leave it to a bunch of kids to run now banned the food is hit and miss but one thing you can guarantee is you will spend all Sunday afternoon Sat on the toilet as they say in one end out the other in a very short amount of time

Pulled up at this pub for Sunday lunch..witnessed a OAP lady beating up the young bold headed resturaunts manager up, in the car park.!!!? ..absolutely hilarious..better than the Benny Hill show....went elsewhere

As my son and granddaughter on their way back to Devon after decided to book a carvery.we decided to plump for the roast beef and pork.the pork was dry beef ok nice roasters.every thing else cabbage,parsnips,cabbage,peas all luke warm very disappointed will not be returning

Bed and Breakfast accommodation in old farmhouse with all facilities and good breakfast . One great benefit was the sheer peace at night with no sounds of any local or busy traffic routes yet very close to the Bristol Ring Road.

The Langley Arms looks like an old fashioned pub. There is the bar area and some tables for food when you enter, but we went to the right to the back where there is more of a family friendly area.

Had an evening meal in the bar/restaurant. great value, typical pub food, large portions a wide range of drinks. Week days not overcrowded.

Went to the Langley Arms last Sunday for lunch.Lovely selection of veg and meats. Best Sunday Lunch I've had for a long time.Have already booked in for Mothers Day for 9 family members.Looking forward to that.

Called recently first time for Sunday Lunch, pre booked and table was waiting. However picked the wrong time to book as the queue for the meal was out the door also bar service chaotic only one person on duty and poor girl was swept of her feet. After waiting for over 25 minutes was going to call it a day, however was encouraged to stay to stay by other people who were also waiting as they said i would not be disappointed, They were right, one of the best meals i have had. Will go again but choose a better time.

Four of us stayed here over this past weekend. I have a lot of really good things to say about...

Had lunch here with family - £6.95 for a carvery that filled us all up was a pretty good price and the food was excellent.

Booked to stay here through booking.com.

Quite possibly the best carvery I have had,,,,not too many veg dishes to choose from which is good but what there was was excellent,, The cauliflower cheese is without a doubt the best I have ever had

Reservamos este hotel a última hora (día de viaje) para un fin de semana con mi marido. Nos gustaría se casó la semana anterior, y no tenía suficiente dinero para un adecuado de miel todavía.

We started our day at 4:30am so by the time we arrived at the B and B at about 8pm all we wanted to do was chill out in front of telly for a bit and have and early night. The B and B is behind the Langley Arms pub so at around 10ish live music started in the pub, they might as well have been playing in our room it was so loud. We were in room 8 which is right at the top of the building on the opposite side of the pub so I can't imagine how loud it would have been in the other rooms! Due to how loud the music was we were then unable to open the windows so the room was incredibly hot, and to top it off there was a few people having and argument and shouting at each other at some point as well. The only thing that was nice was the Building and the look of the room, but this doesn't really count for a lot when you can't sleep! Overall really disappointed and would never stay there again.

The pub catered for 25 people for a wake. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Food was very good. We had an exclusive inside and outside area. Highly rated for this type of occasions.

Good location for the short the drive into the city. Excellent comfortable beds. It's an old property with excellent modern facilities although the floor in room 5 was quite creaking but no problem as it was over the breakfast room. The breakfasts are ordered in advance and cooked fresh as you arrive in the breakfast room. The two full English breakfasts were as good as you can get while continental breakfast Lacked choice, a bit basic but overall an excellent stay. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Went on a Friday lunchtime (4 of us) for first time. Didn't know what to expect. Had the roast, 2 large pieces of lean beef and 2 large pieces of turkey which filled the plate, as much veg as you want. Followed with sticky toffee pudding. Excellent value, very friendly staff. Will definitely be back.

First time hereVery nice pubFriendly staffSteak was cooked exactly how I asked for it and was very nice as was all our meals

Travelled down from Scotland after booking bed and breakfast online, for a family birthday celebration. We arrived just after 1.15 pm and could check in immediately with no problem. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Room was large, clean and comfortable, loved the old world charm of the accommodation, we had checked other reviews so we knew to bring our own toiletries, this was not a problem to us. Quality of the breakfast food was excellent, even if the choice was a bit limited, it was more than adequate for our needs and I enjoyed everything I ate. I would stay here again if I was in the area and would recommend it to others.

I have been to this pub on many occasions and all I can say is "it's average" have a carvery there going back a few months ago and it was very average, it can be very quiet but when there's live music it does get much busier. Could do with a refit!! Very dated and tired!!

The lady wasn't at all welcoming. Room was ok, no toiletries supply and for 2 people sharing a room they were a 1small/1medium/1 large towel all very tired. It is quiet for sure. The breakfast wasn't very good. Few cereales, not even a pot a fresh coffee. No yogurt, no fresh fruits.... Over all nothing much to say.

Very strange place, amazing historic building surrounded by a housing estate! The rooms are average, although clean there were toenail clippings on the carpet. The floors creaked quite a lot due to the age of the building so certainly had character. Unfortunately, stay was marred by a very loud gentleman in the next room talking until after 11 pm. Not sure I'd stay again, but the people were very welcoming.

Really enjoyed a traditional Sunday Lunch. Amazing roast potatoes and parsnips. Choice of three meats. Lots of extras. Mushy peas, onions, all condiments you could want. Highly recommended. Very busy so book

Very good lunch all home cooked. Odd layout. I would say your best to book. Friendly staff. Excellent for families.

We had booked a table which we were pleased as it was very busy. We sat upstairs as we had to collect our meal from the carvery which was situated there. There was a choice of three meats which were all very tender,which was lovely as in some restaurants the beef is tough.There was plenty of vegetables ,roast and boiled potatoes,which were cooked well and was hot. My only criticism is that the carpet upstairs needs replacing

Managed to catch a late Sunday lunch here, they stop serving when its quiet and that was about 3.30pm.The roast is 6.95 on weekdays and now 9.95 on Sundays. Its worth it; the choice of three meats are accompanied by up to 8 sides including new and roast potatoes, honey parsnips, mushy peas and petit pois peas, cabbage, cheesy cauli and Yorkshires. Only negative was that the stuffing wasn't brilliant but the rest was delicious. If you book, you may get seated in the dining areas but even if you don't there is enough space usually. Real ales at the well stocked bar finish off a very relaxed Sunday.

This is a guest house situated next to the pub / restaurant.It is a very attractive building with plenty of on-site parking.The room was spacious, in good order, fairly modern, free Wi-Fi.A short walk between the pub and the rooms. No lift.Drink and food in pub was pretty good and reasonable price.Breakfast was bit limited, cooked to order but not much fresh fruit. Quality was fine. Staff and service was good.Would stay again.

As our annual Christmas family 'get together' meal was approaching we booked the Langley arms for 10 adults and 1 child for a Sunday carvery. On arrival today it seemed reasonably quiet and we were told our tables were upstairs. We went up to find two tables of 6 next to each other. We settled ourselves in and after a catch up went to get our meals. Having got our meals from a hot station situated at the back of the room it was apparent that while the food was in fact quite good the set up was bad and the table holding the gravy and sauces was woefully inadequate as none of the bowls had any labelling so you didn't know if it was bread sauce or horseradish (thankfully our daughter, who thought it might be bread sauce, did not have any as it could have ruined her meal) after sitting down we quickly realised our tables were right in the path of a very busy queue of people wanting their meals. I was knocked on the shoulder several times and almost ended up wearing one ladies meal who stumbled near me. The child in our party who had been sat in a high chair at the end of the table ended up sitting on Mum's lap as she was bumped into repeatedly by people carrying hot food which meant her mum could not really eat her meal very easily. After we had eaten I did ask at the bar to speak to the manager who came over and said 'if it's a problem I can't help'. He obviously thought this was a joke but certainly didn't make me feel that he was particularly interested. He did listen to my complaint and said he would look at perhaps not having tables of 6 in the queueing area but apart from that he wasn't very helpful. I really feel that with a little updating of the decor and a more customer based attitude this pub could be a really lovely place that would make you want to return. Right now, although the food is quite good it is not somewhere you would go unless you just wanted a reasonable meal and were prepared to take pot luck with the badly laid out tables and the, quite frankly, poor service.

2 friends of mine from Weymouth came to visit and I recommended the langley due to hearing good things. Well it left me embarrassed and apologising to my friends. They had booked 5 weeks in advance. However on arrival they were told there were no rooms left and they would be staying in a motor home which was situated to the back of the smoking area of the pub!!! I was furious! They had to pay 100 pound for a family size motor home when it was just them two. They then were not able to have a full English breakfast in the morning they had continental. You'd think that seeing as they were ripped off with their room they would of been given a decent breakfast to make up for it, but no. I will never recommend this place to any friends or family again!

Came across The Langley Arms by accident on the internet. Wanted somewhere near Bath and Bristol and the location was perfect. We had a lovely spacious room with all amenities and easy parking. Went to Bath and then we had an evening meal on our return. Had Braised Steak and it was delicious as well as the Apple Pie that followed with a lovely glass of Rose.We found the room comfortable (maybe an extra pillow would have been nice). The breakfast next day was lovely too (we upgraded to a cooked breakfast for £5 ) I cannot fault the staff as they were all very helpful and attentive and the restaurant has entertainment on some evenings too. Will definitely stay here again.

We'd heard The Langley Arms served a good Sunday Carvery and we were not disappointed. The meats we succulent, the roasters & parsnips were crunchy on the outside & soft in the middle, the veg were all cooked beautifully & the cauliflower cheese was delicious. Plates were a little on the small side but that's my only criticism. We will definitely be making a return visit

A group of friends visited the Langley Arms. We managed to get back room just for us. The bar staff were nice. Waitress was lovely (Young girl blonde hair) a credit to the company. But the food let the night down. Was not good. Beef was burnt and like leather. Other meals was burnt too. 2 of the meals was refunded. we enjoyed the evening dispite of the food, we won't be eating here again but will return just for drinks next time.

We were staying in the guest house next door so ate here. There was a quiz which was good fun. Staff were friendly. Good was lovely but pricey. Unless everything is that price round here.

Dinner on a Wednesday evening - a really nice chicken curry and the best Cottage Pie that I've had for years. The Pier 42 Shiraz complemented it wonderfully - a very nice early evening meal. Highly recommended.

So once again I find myself somewhere I wouldn't normally be due to work, however I am once again pleasantly surprised.A hidden gem nestled on the outskirts of Bristol will have you coming back time and time again. Great value for money, quaint, ample portions to satisfy the biggest appetite and a delectable variety menu.The staff are incredibly friendly, with a special mention and thanks to Georgia for making me feel very welcome, showed me to my cosy room and cannot be faulted for her level of service.Great location for a couples retreat just outside the city centre, and some of the best 'pub grub' I've sampled in a long time! So thank you to all the staff at The Langley Arms for making an otherwise typical business trip that extra something special you have my recommendation everytime. I look forward to coming back again and you should too.
